reverse proxy before websites (possible squid ?)

[Snowman]

hello,
i want to ask if it is somehow possible to run reverse caching proxy before websites running on port 80 on apache on server that is running ispconfig.

I have some webs that have very very big bandwidth and their visitors flooding my mysql and apache by SELECT requests. So i want to put some proxy before.

Any ideas if it is possible and how ? (biggest problem is that i cant edit Vhost_isconfig.conf vhost file in apache because it is autocreated by ispconfig, i also didnt know how to create proxy with namebased virtualhosts)

Thanks,
Martin

You could make your vhosts listen on the local IP 127.0.0.1 and use the other IP for your proxy. This tutorial could help you: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-set...on-debian-etch
